AfxSetAmbientActCtx

  • Article

Use this function to set the per-module state flag, which affects the WinSxS behavior of MFC.

void AFXAPI AfxSetAmbientActCtx( 
BOOL bSet 
);

Parameters

  • bSet
    New value of the module state flag.

Remarks

When the flag is set (which is the default) and a thread enters an MFC module (see AFX_MANAGE_STATE), the context of the module is activated.

If the flag is not set, the context of the module is not activated on entry.

The context of a module is determined from its manifest, usually embedded in module resources.

Example

BOOL CMFCListViewApp::InitInstance()
{
   AfxSetAmbientActCtx(FALSE);
   // Remainder of function definition omitted.
